Walton. Walton Goggins.

Might be a good idea to assign Mr. Goggins his correct first name.

Charles’s and Asa’s sons, respectively.

Important note: the Doctor did not, in fact, reveal any future information to the cop. He made an educated guess. Very different for a time traveler 😁

That’s thanks to all of 14's therapy I suspect.

That was just about my favorite moment of the episode as it showed us part of what The Doctor, and specifically Gatwi’s Doctor, is all about. So Disney asked for The Doctor to appear earlier; they didn’t write the scene — Davies and/or his staff did (sorry, I’m a newspaper writer, not a screen writer so I don’t know…

Well, you have always had suits mucking about with Dr Who, though.

Yeah, no, he is the 15th, and the episode made that clear.

I didn’t realize he had filmed any scenes for the special (I thought he had passed before filming), so what a treat it was to see him at the end of the episode. Wilf is one of the absolute best characters to come out of Nu Who, and it was such a joy to have one final moment with him. RIP Bernard Cribbins.
